Paul Merson Predicts Thumping Win for Arsenal in Upcoming North London Derby

Former Arsenal midfielder Paul Merson expects his old club to pile on the misery for their north London rivals Tottenham when the two sides face each another on Sunday.

Spurs slumped to a 1-0 home defeat against Newcastle last weekend, continuing a dreadful run of form that has seen them win just four of their last 15 league games dating back to the end of last season.

Arsenal also suffered their first loss of the season when they were beaten 3-1 by Liverpool on Saturday, but Merson is less concerned by that result and is tipping the Gunners to bounce back this weekend with a dominant victory.
